Also good!

This is an amazing idea. I’ve toyed with the idea of creating both subject specific and geographic specific groups for my interests but it’s a clunky solution. For example, I like birdwatching, but I want to know what people are seeing around me, not on a continent away, so being able to join a centralized ‘birding’ group then narrow it down geographically would solve the problem of having to create potentially hundreds of sub groups. Same for politics, news, restaurants, etc.

Get rid and of corporate ownership of housing, increase property taxes on non primary residences, and do something about house flippers.

Sweat wicking clothes and a bandana on my head. The bandana will be soaked when I’m done with a 5k, but it keeps so much sweat off my body and out of my eyes.

I’m east of these beaches this week on vacation. Is this related to the high water temperatures in the Gulf? Saw fish have been driven to strange behavior in southern Florida recently.

“mostly” was actually a subset of employees that owned a controlling interest and shared with some more passive investors. I don’t know the details on how the PEF got a majority but I imagine the passive investors were bought out and can’t imagine it took many employees to defect to produce the majority.

I think being stepped on would be less trauma than transplanting. You could always fold them back onto your property and wrap them with some flagging tape or something to keep them visible to workers.

By cutting them back, I meant cutting them back to a reasonable length to manage. It’s usually not great to prune plants more than 1/3 of their total size, but some plants will even recover from a full cut back. The jasmine will be fine. Depending on the rose variety, they should be ok too. Some people seriously prune roses to encourage flowering.

I’d leave them in the ground if possible and just untangle them from the fence. Cut them back if need be. This is not a great time for transplantation and they may not survive.

If you have to take them out, your plan is probably the best you can do. Make sure to keep the roots wet the entire time they’re out. That’s going to be your main killer.

I think the construction company is just being lazy and doesn’t want to work around the tree but if it’s a Bradford Pear, they’d be doing you a favor. If it’s on the south side of the house insist on the replacement being something sturdy and deciduous so you get shade in the summer and sun in the winter. Cherry bark and Scarlet Oaks are great. You have some leaf pickup every year, but as hot as the summers have been lately, you’ll save a fortune on electric if it shades your house.

If you want it as an evergreen green screen, get a Southern Magnolia.

Myself and some other managers I know became managers for being competent at our science-based jobs when the company wanted to expand. Our education and career up until this point mostly had not involved learning skills like delegation, teaching, scheduling, and team-budgeting, not to mention the interactive social skills needed to successfully manage individuals.

Some bad managers are just good workers that weren’t able to suddenly learn these skills when their employer insisted they manage a team so it could pursue its endless quest for infinite growth by setting up hierarchies of workers. Good managers are either trained in management or extraordinarily talented.

Is anyone helping them?

I very much miss the Facebook groups of 2018, but there’s so much recommended content, I barely even see my wanted content. When I do see something, it’s only once before it’s buried, even if there’s an evolving discussion in the thread which there rarely is anymore due to the glut of sponsered content.

In the 1980s, that was an extra large soft drink.

That was my gut reaction too but what happens when this happens to the electric company as well?
